Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic

FOUR since Matthew was born. In fact, they are known around town and by family and friends as the Fab Four. I love the name. I love what it represents, and I love how they uphold that title. Having four children in seven years was probably the best thing I could’ve done in building my family. In fact, if I could turn back time I would have had more children and even closer in age. For the most part, I love how my family interacts with one another. I love all the giggles and laughter and…

From past to present to the inevitable future, we as humans have done terrible things. Things like the Holocaust, countless wars, genocide, sex trafficking, terrorism, and many other events in which people lose faith in the world we live in. Most people will argue the fact that humanity is not beautiful, but ugly for these reasons, but it’s really both: humanity is beautiful because the world is ugly, there are definite relationships between the two opposites. The Book Thief by Markus Zusak…

someone finds out something he or she wanted, almost needed, to know and this would do well to explain the Bluebeard-Robber Bridegroom (BRB) tales. A beautiful girl is married, or going to be married, to a rich man and has a burning curiosity to see his house, or a room she has been given access to but was told she is not allowed to go in. As anyone would want to, she courageously goes to the house where she finds the room, or finds the room within the house. She may…

be an attractive woman was compelling. Wang Lung’s father asks “And what will we do with a pretty woman? We must have a woman who will tend the house and bear children as she works in the fields, and will a pretty woman do these things? She will be forever thinking about clothes to go with her face!” Wang Lung’s father does not believe a beautiful woman can also be a hard worker. Moreover, he even goes so far as to say that a woman must clean the house and…

Have you ever met the perfect person, and things were going great! Then all of a sudden, things shift to a slow pace and eventually fade away. One might call it unlucky or bad timing, but I believe the factor that kills a relationship is the lack of communication or expressing what you are truly feeling. I often believed that the universe was working against me when the magic seemed to evaporate from the relationship. Sometimes insecurities and doubts are the reasons one may not express their…

the most important thing in my life besides my wife and kids. It provides a sense of fullness I can’t get anywhere else. 2. To what church or religious organization do you belong? What is the tradition and what specific denomination? I am a Druid senior priest from ADF [A Druid Fellowship]. I lead a grove [Three Cranes Grove] with 300 to 400 members in Columbus, Ohio. Our traditions are all over the place; we believe there is not a single authority over us, rather many things that interact…

order to analyze what constitutes “proper” usage of the soulmate song, I will examine three different scenarios that a musical couple can encounter in the course of a film. The first category is the couple that, despite the conventions of the genre, does not ever actually sing together. In general, these couples tend to suffer from a severe lack of chemistry. The second category of couples contain those who sing together, and do manage to be convincing in their love or, at the very least, lust…

is thrilled when a boat ends up on the shore of their island with new men, seeing she has only seen 3 other people in her life. By using iambic pentameter, “O, wonder! / How many goodly creatures are there here! / How beauteous mankind is! O brave new world, / That has such people in't!”, this stresses the excitement that Miranda is feeling towards new people arriving on the island and new world of interaction that she is about to experience. These interactions will help her discover human…

displacement. The two books Alice in Wonderland and A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court explore this desire to alter one’s surroundings. In Alice, Alice is thrust into a world of madness and confusion, which is the polar opposite of everything she knows from Victorian England. Similarly, in A Connecticut Yankee, Hank Morgan finds Arthurian…

Imagine you were in a situation between life and death and in order to save your life you needed to lie. This very thing occurred in The Crucible, a play written by Arthur Miller. The Crucible is a story about the small puritan town of Salem, Massachusetts in 1692. In this small town every rumor is spread at the speed of light and when girls were found in the woods “dancing” by the local reverend that’s when the talk of witchcraft blew up the whole town. Many innocent people were accused for…
